I have confirmed they die from hits on them and not from me. I can be out of 100% of all damage, out of all area, out of everything. No reflect, no attacking. A monster (normally something big with physical attacks), can hit them and kill them. I have seen this standing just close enough to Rift Guardians. Inferno Maiden and Raiziel for examples, I have confirm will kill them if it hits them and nothing else.

Found the same thing! It was fine from season beginning, but starting about a day or two ago, the sims would die quite often. Even in low damage low density situations, they would disappear sometimes.
Very frustrating in Grifts

I don’t view this as a bug. Description of Haunted Visions amulet says Simulacrum last forever but lacks “DO NOT DIE” as with follower tokens.
Legendary Power of Haunted Visions
Simulacrum now drains 1% of your maximum life every second and lasts forever. They can now duplicate Grim Scythe instead of Skeletal Mage. (Necromancer Only) 1%
Except it says “Does not take damage”. If they are not suppose to take damage then how are they taking damage and dying?

Yeah, I’ve tried to explain this to people, too. They try to say it’s because the Sim is sacrificing itself to save you (one of the runes), but it doesn’t account for them dying when you are not near any danger.
Edit: just to be clear, it’s the set that is supposed to make them invulnerable, not the amulet.
After some more testing, they stay alive a lot better if you stack more armor. Adding the passive Stand Alone for more armor they were able to live hits they once died to, testing more has shown this.
